Period automobiles are seen parked on both sides of the street. Streetcar tracks run down the center of the street. Monteleone high-rise building visible in distance to center left. Not dated. Photo taken at end of 1920s or early 1930s. This copy was mailed with a postmark of November 3, 1935, meaning it must predate that.

Historische Rezepte

1/2 teaspoon benedictine
1 dash Peychaud bitters
1 dash Angostura bitters
1/3 jigger rye whiskey
1/3 jigger cognac brandy
1/3 jigger Italian vermouth
The benedictine is used as a base and also for sweetening the
cocktail. Dash on the bitters, then add the rye, brandy, and
vermouth. Put several lumps of ice in the barglass. Stir. Twist
a slice of lemon peel over the mixture. Drop in a slice of pine-
apple and a cherry if you wish and serve in mixing glass.
This is the cocktail that Walter Bergeron, head bar-
tender of the Hotel Monteleone cocktail lounge, takes
special pride in mixing. He originated it, he says, to do
honor to the famed Vieux Carré, that part of New Or-
leans where the antique shops and the iron lace balconies
give sightseers a glimpse into the romance of another day.
